Independent Photography Festival 2014
All the talented photographers you creepily follow online are about to jump straight out of Tumblr and into the real world. With solo exhibitions, zine fairs and a few cheeky soirees to boot, IPF is the best place to discover the amazing art that's hiding right on your doorstep.
Overview
All the talented people you follow online are about to jump straight out of Tumblr and into the real world, the Independent Photography Festival is back for another year. Co-ordinated by the local legends from Hard Workers Club, Smalltime Projects and The Good Copy Shop, this unique love-in will be hosted in Melbourne's best small galleries, shops and bars. Featuring seven solo exhibitions, a zine fair and a few cheeky soirees, this little gem of a festival is the best place to discover the amazing art that's right on your doorstep.
This year, the festival hub will once again be at The Good Copy shop on Johnston Street. Here you can bunker down in a hands-on collage workshop with Minna Gilligan or survey the spoils of the annual zine fair. For individual exhibitions you'll have to cruise through a selection of galleries in the city and inner north, but to get you started we suggest heading along to Opening Night at Strange Neighbour. With submissions from the 2014 IPF Photo Prize plastered all over the walls, it'll be the perfect transition for those still pining for their Tumblr dashboard.
